AT   THE  ACTORS'  PLOT 


BY  MONROE  H.  ROSEN FELD 


Hail  and  farewell,  Oh,  comrade  dear  : 

Life's  spectacle  is  o'er; 
In  Summer  sweet,  in  Winter  drear, 

We  hear  thy  voice  no  more ! 
And  yet,  the  kindly  hand  that  gave, 

The  heart  with  impulse  pure, 
Though  deep  within  yon  silent  grave, 

In  mem'ry  still  endure! 
Rest:  from  the  warfare  and  the  strife! 
Rest!  'tis  the  ended  play  of  Lite! 

Oft,  'mid  the  throng  we'll  speak  of  thee. 
Thy  radiant  smiles  recall; 

And  in  the  years  that  still  may  be 
Thy  voice  will  softly  fall- 

Thy  voice  that  rang  with  hearty  mirth 
And  fellowship  so  bright  ! 

Oh.  clasp  him  to  thy  bosom,  earth- 
Not  gone,  tho  lost  to  sight! 

Rest'  from  the  triumph  and  the  strife! 

Rest'  'tis  the  ended  play  of  Life! 

Loved  ones  will  ke?p  forever  green 

This  mound  that  folds  thy  dust' 
Mansions  in  yonder  realms  serene 

Thv  home  shall  be,  we  trust 
The  gems  of  Honesty  and  Worth, 

Arid  all  that  manhood  gives. 
These  never  fade  away  from  earth, 

Thro'  such  thy  mem'ry  lives! 
Rest !  from  the  pageaut  and  the  strife! 
Rest  I  'tis  the  ended  play  of  Life  :

twenty-four  classes  until  lie  shall  have  won  a  prize  in 
competition  in  that  class  open  to  the  members  of  two  or 
more  clubs.  The  winning  of  such  a  prize  shall  prevent  his 
future  competition  as  a  novice  in  that  class,  although  his 
entry  may  have  been  made  before  he  lost  his  standing  as 
a  novice. 

And  of  such  amateur  athletic  clubs  which,  in  addition 
to  the  adoption  of  the  above  definition,  shall  have  a  bona 
fide  amateur  membership  of  at  least  fifty;  shall  be  or- 
ganized and  continue  for  amateur  athletic  pursuits  of 
any  kind,  and  shall  not  have  among  their  members  any 
professional  athlete. 

Western  Amateur  Athletic  Association. 
An  amateur  athlete  is  one  who  has  never  competed  with 
or  against  a  professional  for  a  prize ;  or  who  has  never 
competed  for  a  staked  bet  or  other  monetary  considera- 
tion, or  under  a  fictitious  name ;  or  who  has  never,  direct- 
ly or  indirectly,  either  in  competition  or  as  an  instructor, 
as  an  assistant  or  through  any  connection  whatever  with 
any  form  of  athletic  games,  obtained  any  financial  con- 
sideration, either  directly  or  indirectly,  who  has  never 
sold  or  pledged  any  prize  or  token  won  or  obtained 
through  connection  with  athletics  (this  clause  is  not  re- 
troactive), or  whose  membership  in  any  athletic  organi- 
zation is  of  no  pecuniary  benefit  to  himself,  direct  or  in- 
direct; or  who,  having  transgressed  any  of  the  foregoing 
provisions,  has  been  duly  reinstated. 

English  and  Scottish  Amateur  athletic  Associatk  ins 
An  amateur  is  one  who  has  never  competed  for  a  money 
prize,  or  monetary  consideration,  or  for  any  declared 
wager  or  staked  bet;  who  has  never  engaged  in,  assisted 
in, "or  taught  any  athletic  exercises  as  a  means  of  pecun- 
iary gain;  and  who  has  never  taken  part  in  any  competi- 
tion with  anyone  who  is  not  an  amateur.  Exceptions: 
(a)  That  amateur  athletes  shall  not  lose  their  amateur 
status  by  competing  with  or  against  professionals  in 
cricket  matches,  or  in  ordinary  club  football  matches  for 
which  no  prizes  are  given,  or  in  cup  competitions  per- 
mitted by  the  national  football  associations  or  national 
Rugby  unions  of  England,  Ireland,  Scotland  or  Wales, 
providing  that  such  competitions  or  matches  form  no 
part  of,  nor  have  any  connection  with  any  athletic  meet- 
ing, (b)  That  competitions  at  arms  between  volunteers 
and  regulars  shall  not  be  considered  as  coming  within  the 
scope  of  the  A.  A.  A.  laws,  (c)  That  competitions  in  offi- 
cers' races  at  naval  and  military  athletic  meetings  (such 
races  being  for  officers  only,  and  tor  which  money  prizes 
are  not  given)  shall  be  exempt  from  the  laws  of  the  A.  A. 
A.  disqualifying  runners  for  competing  at  mixed  meet 
ings.  (d)  That  the  championship  of  the  army  races  be 
exempt  from  the  effect  of  this  rule,  (e)  That  a  paid 
handicapper  is  not  a  professional. — Adopted  1896. 

A  novice  is  one  who  has  never  won  a  prize  in  a  similar 
class  of  competition,  i.  e.,  winning  a  prize  for  walking 
would  not  disqualify  for  running,  and  vice  versa;  but 
winning  a  prize  for  running  any  distance  would  dis- 
qualify for  running.  This  rule  does  not  apply  to  school 
and  boys'  races. 

United  States  Golf  Association. 
An  amateur  golfer  shall  be  a  golfer  who  has  never  re-

tion, played  a  match  game  against  a  professional  for  a 
money  bet  or  stake,  nor  played  in  a  club  competition 
for  a  money  prize  or  sweepstakes.

RAGES  FOR  THE  AMERICA  CUP. 

Where  more  than  two  yachts  competed  in  any  of  these 
international  races  the  position  at  the  finish  of  the  ves- 
sel of  opposing  nationality  to  the  winner  is  given  in  par- 
entheses, except  in  races  in  which  she  finished  second. 
What  is  now  known  as  the  "America  Cup"  was  originally 
called  the  "Royal  Yacht  Squadron  Cup,"  and  is  frequently 
wrongly  termed  the  "Queen's  Cup."

OUR  IIaLUSTRATIOKS. 

DRAMATIC. 


Alice  Nielsen  was  born  in  Nashville,  Tenn.  Her  mu- 
sical education  she  received,  however,  in  San  Francisco, 
Cal.,  where  she  not  only  studied  under  a  capable  instruc- 
tress, but  where  she  also  obtained  valuable  practice  and 
stage  experience  as  a  member  of  the  opera  company  at 
the  Tivoli  Theatre,  where  she  made  her  first  appearance 
in  1895.  Previous  to  this,  however,  she  had  been  for  a 
time  connected  with  a  church  choir  company,  a  semi  pro- 
fessional organization.  While  singing  at  the  Tivoli  her 
abilities  were  recognized  by  H.  Clay  Barnabee,  of  the  Bos- 
tonians,  and  she  accepted  his  offer  to  become  a  member  of 
that  company,  with  which  she  at  first  assumed  the  role  of 
Annabel,  in  "Robin  Hood."  The  following  season  she 
was  given  the  role  of  Maid  Marian,  which  she  filled  with 
much  credit.  When  "The  Serenade"  was  produced  she 
was  given  the  principal  soprano  role,  in  which  she  gained 
much  renown.  On  Sept.  14,  1897,  Miss  Nielsen  made  her 
stellar  debut  at  the  Grand  Opera  House,  Toronto,  Can.,  in 
••  The  Fortune  Teller,"  a  comic  opera,  in  three  acts,  book 
by  Harry  H.  Smith  and  music  by  Victor  Herbert.  Within 
a  fortnight  following  this  event  she  presented  this  work  at 
Wallace's,  this  city,  where  she  had  a  lengthy  and  very 
successful  engagement. 


Jefferson  De  Angelis.— This  favorite  comic  opera 
comedian  has  had  a  long  and  varied  experience  upon  the 
stage  both  here  and  abroad.  A  sketch  of  his  professional 
career  was  printed  in  The  Clii'Pkr  Annual  of  1«98,  and 
its  publication  was  so  recent  as  to  render  unnecessary 
any  further  reference  to  his  past  career.  This  season  he 
is  again  touring  as  a  separate  star  and  is  w  inning  great 
success  in  "The  Jolly  Musketeer,"  a  comic  opera,  written 
for  him  by  Stanislaus  Stange  and  Julian  Edwards.  He 
has  presented  this  work  in  the  Broadway  Theatre,  this 
city,  where  it  won  success  at  a  bound. 


Viola  Allen. — Few  professionals  are  better  known 
throughout  this  country  than  is  this  talented  actress. 
Perhaps  some  of  her  power  has  come  as  a  hereditary  gift, 
for  she  is  the  daughter  ol  C.  Leslie  Allen,  an  excellent, 
actor,  and  her  mother,  who  many  years  ago  abandoned 
the  stage,  was  an  actress  of  recognized  ability.  Miss 
Allen  has  been  the  leading  support  of  some  of  the  most 
prominent  stars,  including  John  McCullough,  the  elder 
Salvini,  and  Jefferson  and  Florence.  Upon  the  opening 
of  the  Empire  Theatre,  this  city,  she  became  leading  lady 
of  the  stock  company,  a  position  she  continuously" filled 
until  last  Summer.  During  that  period  she  played  many 
roles  in  which  she  won  renow  n,  and  her  performance  of 
which  did  much  to  secure  the  success  of  the  plays  and 
establish  the  prosperity  of  the  house.  This  season  she 
began  her  stellar  career,  and  thus  far  has  nu  t  with  un 
precedented  success.  Hall  Caine  wrote  for  her  "The 
Christian,"'  a  drama  founded  upon  his  own  novel  of  the 
same  name,  and  in  this  plav  Miss  Alien  made  her  stellar 
debut  on  Sept.  23,  at  the  Empire  Theatre,  Albany,  N  Y 
She  first  presented  the  plav  in  this  city  on  Oct  10,  at  the 
Knickerbocker  Theatre,  and  during  her  engagement  there 
of  six  weeks'  duration  she  played  to  the  largest  receipts 
ever  taken,  at  regular  ju  ices,  in  a  corresponding  time,  by 
any  dramal  ic  attraction  in  this  country.  Owing  to  other 
engagements  made  by  the  management  of  the  house  Miss 
Allen  was  obliged  to  remove  to  the  Garden  Theatre,  where 
she  is  still  playing,  and  where  it  is  expected  she  will  re- 
main during  the  remainder  of  this  season. 


Robert  Bruce  Mantell  was  born  m  Irvine,  Ayrshire, 
Scotia  ml.  Feb.  7,  1854.  His  lather,  an  Englishman,  anil 
hi-  mother,  a  Scotchwoman,  removed  to  Belfast,  Ireland, 
when  Robert  was  but  four  years  of  age,  and  there  he  w  as 
reared  and  educated.  He  made  his  professional  debut, 
under  the  name  of  Hudson,  as  the  sergeant  in  "Arrah-na 
Pogue,"  in  Rochdale,  Yorkshire,  in  1X74.  For  four  years 
he  had  a  varied  experience  on  the  stage,  playing  in  the 
support  of  Miss  Marriott,  Charles  Matthews,* John  Dew 
hurst,  Barry  Sullivan  and  MissWallis.  During  the  season 
of  1878-79  lie  came  to  this  country  and  appeared  in  the 
company  of  Mine.  Modjeska.  Returning  to  England,  he 
joined  Mr.  and  Mrs.  George  S.  Knight,  when  they  made 
their  English  debut  in  the  Prince  of^Wales  Theatre,  Birm- 
ingham, on  July  28,  1879,  playing  Dick  Freely,  in  "Otto," 
and  in  that  character  he  made  his  London  debut  in  Sad- 
lers'  Wells  Theatre  In  September,  1880,  he  rejoined  Miss 
Wallis,  to  play  leading  business,  and  opened  in  the  The 
atre  Royal,  Birmingham,  as  Romeo.  On  June  7,  1881. 
they  began  an  engagement  in  the  Olympic  Theatre,  Lon- 
don, where  he  played  leading  roles  in  the  metropolis  for 
the  first  time.  In  October  of  that  year  he  joined  Miss  De 
Grav  as  leading  man.  In  the  latter  part  of  1882  he  re- 
turned to  America  and  was  engaged  by  John,  Stetson  to 
impersonate  Sir  Clement,  lluntingford  in  "The  World," 
opening  at  the  Grand  Opera  House  in  this  city.  After 


playing  there  for  two  weeks  he  went  on  the  road  for  four 
weeks,  and  was  then  recalled  to  Booth's  Theatre,  to  re- 
place John  Norton  as  Jack  Hearne,  in  "The  Romany 
Rye,"  which  role  he  continued  to  play  on  tour  until  the 
end  of  the  season.  The  following  season  he  appeared 
with  Fanny  Davenport  and  established  himself  tho- 
roughly in  popular  favor  in  the  role  of  Loris,  in  "Fedora," 
a  role  which  he  created  in  this  country  at  the  Fourteenth 
Street,  Theatre,  this  city.  He  next  appeared  as  Guilbert 
Vaughn,  in  "Called  Back,"  in  the  Fifth  Avenue  Theatre, 
this  city,  and  afterwards  in  all  the  principal  cities  of  the 
United  States.  The  following  season  he  returned  to  Mis* 
Davenport,  playing  his  old  part  of  Loris,  in  "Fedora." 
He  had  also  opened  the  Lyceum  Theatre,  this  city,  under 
the  management  of  the  late  Steele  Mackaye,  playing  the 
part  of  Dakala  iu  his  piece  of  that  name.  After  that  sea- 
son Augustus  Pitou  launched  him  as  his  star  before  the 
American  public  in  John  Keeler's  play  of  "Tangled 
Lives."  He  remained  with  Mr.  Pitou  for  six  years,  in 
which  time  he  added  to  his  repertorv  "Monbars,"  "Corsi- 
can  Brothers,"  "Hamlet,"  "Othello,"  "Marble  Heart," 
"Lady  of  Lyons,"  "Romeo  and  Juliet,"  "The  Veiled  Pic- 
ture" (by  Mr.  Haven),  "The  Louisianan"  (by  Mr.  Al- 
friend),  "Parrhasins."  "The  Husband,"  "The  Queen's 
Gai  ter"  (by  Espy  Williams),  and  "The  Face  in  the  Moon- 
light," which  he  produced  under  Mr.  Proctor's  manage- 
ment. He  then  managed  himself  for  two  seasons,  and 
for  several  seasons  past  he  has  been  very  prosperous 
under  the  management  of  Mart  W.  Hanley.  He  is  now 
touring,  and  has  added  to  his  repertory  "A  Secret  War- 
rant," in  which  he  has  won  additional  fame. 


Stuart  Robson  was  born  in  Annapolis,  Md.,  on  March 
4,  1836.  He  made  his  professional  debut  in  1*52,  in  John 
E.  Owens'  Company,  in  Baltimore,  Md.  After  that  he  had 
a  very  busy  professional  career  for  many  years,  during 
which  he  toured  the  country  with  various  combinations 
and  also  spent  considerable  time  as  a  member  of  stock 
companies  in  Baltimore,  Washington.  Philadelphia,  New 
Orleans  and  Boston.  About  1878  he  formed  a  partnership 
with  Wm.  H.  Crane,  which  lasted  until  1889,  during  which 
time  they  made  many  important  productions,  including 
"The  Henrietta."  which  is  still  dear  to  memory.  Since 
the  dissolution  of  his  partnership  with  Mr.  Crane  he  lias 
produced  many  new  plays,  and  he  has  also  appeared  in  a 
number  of  the  standard  comedies.  He  is  this  season  pre- 
senting "The  Meddler,"  which  had  its  metropolitan  pre- 
sentation at  Wallack's. 


Richard  Mansfield  is  one  of  the  two  sons  of  the  late- 
Erminia  Mansfield-Rudersdorff,  a  famous  singer  who  came 
here  from  Europe,  and  made  this  country  her  home.  Mr 
Mansfield  was  born  about  1856,  and  claims  Heligoland  as 
his  birthplace.  Much  of  his  earlier  life  was  passed  in  Bos- 
ton, Mass.,  where  he  was  for  a  time  employed  in  commer- 
cial pursuits  and  in  journalism  He  visited  Europe  early 
in  life,  and  while  in'  London  his  skill  as  a  vocalist,  musi- 
cian and  imitator  of  well  known  actors  made  him  in  de- 
mand as  a  social  entertainer.  He  entered  professional 
life  in  London,  joining  the  German  Reeds,  and  subse- 
quently played  with  success  at  some  of  the  principal  Lon- 
don theatres,  doing  Sir  Joseph  in  "Pinafore"  among  other 
roles.  He  soon  after  returned  to  this  country  and  made 
his  metropolitan  debut  Sept.  26,  1878.  as  Dromez,  in  "Les 
Manteaux  Nous,"  at  the  (old)  Standard  Theatre,  New 
York  City  He  afterwards  joined  the  stock  company  of 
the  Union  Square  Theatre.  'He  has  been  for  many  years 
a  prominent  star  and  has  given  to  the  stage  some  very 
unique  creations.  The  plays  in  which  lie  has  won  fame, 
and  which  he  still  retains  in  his  repertory,  are:  "Prince 
Karl,"  "AParisian  Romance,"  "Dr.  Jekyll  and  Mr.  Hyde," 
"Beau  Brummell,"  "Arms  and  the  Man"  and  "Napoleon." 
He  has  also  essayed  two  Shakespearean  roles.  Richard  III 
and  Shylock  Mr  Mansfield  in  1895  leased  Harrigan's 
Theatre'  in  this  city,  which  he  recln  istened  the  Garrick, 
and  in  which  he  hoped  to  have  a  career  as  an  actor  man- 
ager,  but  through  lack  of  satisfactory  public  support  he 
abandoned  this  scheme.  Other  plays  which  he  has  pre- 
sented are:  "The  Storv  of  Rodion,  the  Student,"  "Cattle 
Sombras"  and  "The  First  Violin."  This  season  he  has 
made  an  elaborate  production  of  Edmond  Rostand's  fine 
poetical  drama,  "Cyrano  de  Bergerac."  in  the  title  role  of 
which  he  has  won  the  greatest  triumph  of  his  professional 
career. 


Yvonne  De  Treville  — This  excellent  young  singer 
won  quick  recognition  from  the  New  York  public  as  the 
one  bright,  redeeming  feature  of  the  ill  fated  "La  Fa- 
lote."  when  that  operetta  was  produced  at  the  Casino, 
Match  1,  1897  Her  girlish  beauty  and  fresh,  well  culti 
vated  voice  won  lor  her  instant  favor  As  a  member  of

won  a  series  of  notable  successes  in  Baltimore,  Philadel- 
phia and  Washington,  where  she  appeared  in  "Lucia  di 
Lammermoor,"  "The  Daughter  of  the  Regiment"  and 
"Faust."  Her  impersonation  of  Marguerite,  the  only  role 
in  which  she  was  seen  at  the  American  Theatre  last  sea- 
son, served  to  establish  her  firmly  in  the  favor  of  local 
patrons  of  the  Castle  Square  Opera  Company.  Last 
Winter  Miss  De  Treville  figured  prominently  at  "the  Wal 
dorf  musicales,  and  earned  much  critical  praise  lor  her 
felicitous  interpretation  of  one  of  the  leading  roles  in  the 
presentation  of  "Adelaide,"  in  which  she  was  associated 
with  David  Bispham  and  Julie  Opp,  Mrs.  Whiffen  and 
Mrs.  Walcott,  of  the  Lyceum  Theatre  Company.  The 
young  prima  donna  is  a  pupil  of  Mine.  Marchesi,  and  en- 
joyed the  distinction  of  being  the  youngest  member  of 
the  class.  Miss  De  Treville  is  an  accomplished  harpist. 
She  is  at  present  a  member  of  the  Castle  Square  Opera 
Co.,  at  the  American  Theatre,  this  city,  and  has  won 
hearty  praise  in  every  role  in  which  she  has  appeared. 

Adelaide  Herrmann,  widow  of  the  famous  magician, 
Herrmann  the  Great,  now  appears  in  her  new  act,  "A 
Night  in  Japan,"  in  which  she  has  made  a  pronounced 
success  as  a  prestidigitatrice.  Too  much  credit  can  not  be 
given  to  this  plucky  little  woman,  through  whose  energy 
and  skill  the  art  of  magic  has  been  kept  up  to  the  highest 
standard  obtained  for  the  mystic  art  by  her  late  husband 
To  her  is  due  the  credit  of  placing  before  the  public  Leon 
Herrmann  as  successor  to  Herrmann  the  Great,  and  on 
whose  shoulder  the  mantle  has  so  gracefully  fallen. 

De  Wolf  Hopper  was  born  in  the  City  of  New  York. 
His  father,  who  was  an  eminent  member  of  the  legal  pro- 
fession, left  him  a  handsome  legacy  which  he  immediate 
ly  invested  in  a  comedy  company  with  which  he  appeared 
for  four  years,  the  last"  of  his  legacy  taking  flight  in  an 
effort  to  win  success  with  a  play  entitled  "One  Hundred 
Wives."  After  this  he  appeared  in  Edward  Harrigan's 
production  of  "The  Blackbird,"  and  at  the  close  of  that 
engagement  he  devoted  his  time  to  vocal  study  with  the 
hope  of  appearing  in  grand  opera.  He  abandoned  this 
project,  however,  and  became  a  member  of  the  company 
of  t  he  Madison  Square  Theatre.  The  following  year.  1884. 
he  joined  the  McCaull  Opera  Co.  with  which  he  remained 
for  five  years.  He  began  his  stella  career  in  1890,  in  "Cas 
ties  in  the  Air."  The  following  season  he  appeared  in 
"Wang."  and  with  this  work  entered  upon  a  career  which 
has  since  been  continuously  profitable.  "Wang"  having 
been  retained  as  his  offering  for  two  seasons.  Since  that 
time  he  has  presented  "Panjandrum,"  "Dr.  Syntax"  and 
"El  Capitan."  This  season  he  is  appearing  in  "The 
Charlatan."  which  early  in  the  Fall  he  brought  to  the 
Knickerbocker  Theatre,  this  city,  and  which  he  has  since 
successfully  presented  in  other  cities. 

Etta  Reed,  the  handsome  leading  lady  of  Corse  Pay- 
ton's  Comedy  Co.,  has  gained  an  enviable  standing  among 
patrons  of  repertory.  Her  versatility  is  nightly  put  to 
the  test,  and  the  difficult  task  of  depicting  from  six  to 
twelve  different  roles  a  week  is  artistically  accomplished. 
Her  wardrobe  is  admitted  to  be  the  finest  in  repertory, 
and  her  general  popularity  makes  her  a  prominent  lac- 
tor  in  the  success  of  Mr.  Payton's  endeavors. 

Broadhcrst  Brothers'  Attractions  — 'What  Hap- 
pened to  Jones"  and  "Why  Smith  Left  Home,"  George 
H.  Broadhurst's  farces,  are  among  the  prominent  suc- 
cessful enterprises  of  the  season.  Among  the  leading 
members  of  these  organizations  are:  Mrs.  Annie  Yea- 
mans,  Helen  Bell,  Dorothy  Usner,  Mrs.  E.  A.  Eberle. 
Marion  Gixoux,  Ada  Craven,  Maclvn  Arbuckle,  J,  W. 
Cope,  H.  F.  Robert  and  Fred  W.  Peters. 

"Brown's  in  Town."— J.  J.  Rosenthal's  new  farce,  by 
Mark  E.  Swan,  is  one  of  the  most  recent  successful  bid- 
ders for  public  favor.  Anna  Belmont,  Kathryn  Oster- 
man,  Bell  Davis,  J.  O.  Barrows  and  John  Lancaster  are 
prominent  members  of  the  company. 


The  Rays,  John  and  Emma,  whose  starring  tour  in  "A 
Hot  Old  Time'"  for  last  season  and  this  has  been  a  phe- 
nomenal succcess,  have  been  favorably  known  for  a  long 
time.  Mr.  Ray,  by  his  unique  make  up  and  original 
methods  in  Irish  comedy,  was  at  all  times  a  sure  fire 
comedian,  and  Mrs.  Ray's  robust  mode  of  acting  forms  a 
unique  contrast.  Previous  to  their  return  East  a  few 
years  ago  they  played  extended  engagements  on  the  Pa- 
cific coast.  In  New  York  they  appeared  at  Weber  & 
Fields'  Broadway  Music  Hall,  also  with  a  road  combina- 
tion. Last  season  they  started  out  in  Edgar  Selden's  "A 
Hot  Old  Time,"  under  the  author's  management,  and  at 
once  jumped  into  popular  favor,  making  the  company 
one  of  the  best  paying  on  the  road.  This  season  they  are 
under  the  management  of  Edward  A.  Braden,  and  "A 
Hot  Old  Time,"  presented  by  a  new  company,  is  playing 
to  enormous  receipts.  Mr.  Ray  has  made  the  East  his 
home,  and  entertained  royally  last  Summer  at  his  large 
and  comfortable  residence  at  Bath  Beach,  New  York. 


James  R.  Waite,  whose  claim  to  the  credit  of  being  the 
pioneer  of  popular  priced  traveling  entertainments  is 
generally  acknowledged,  has  been  before  the  public  for 
many  years  as  actor  and  manager.  After  a  varied  expe- 
rienced legitimate  roles,  and  engagements  with  a  num- 
ber of  the  leading  companies  of  the  day,  he  left  the  pro- 
fession for  a  time,  and  when  he  returned  to  the  fold  it 
was  at  the  helm  of  his  own  company.  At  that  time  the 
several  organizations  touring  in  the  vicinity  of  Colorado, 
where  he  was  then  living,  were,  with  but  lew  exceptions, 
meeting  witli  indifferent  success,  and  hedecided  that  the 
scale  of  prices  then  prevailing  was  mainly  responsible  for 
this.  Resolving  that  the  company  he  contemplated  or- 
ganizing should  be  conducted  upon  a  policy  that  would 
bbviate  this  difficulty,  lie  caused  the  scale  of  prices  to  be 
fixed  at  an  extremely  low  rate,  and  afterward  made  a 
still  further  reduction,  playing  at  ten,  twenty  and  thirty 
cents.  These  prices  have  since  been  maintained,  and  the 
first  Waite  Comedy  Company,  which  be^ran  its  career  in 
1880,  met  with  phenomenal  success,  and  played  entirely  in 
the  West  up  to  1883.  Finding  that  popular  prices  and 
capable  productions  were  generously  recognized  by  the 
public,  he  widened  his  field  of"  operations,  and  an  Eastern 
comedy  company  and  an  opera  organization  eventually 
bore  his  name.  Fortune  treated  him  most  kindly,  and  all 
three  companies  have  prospered.  Mr.  Waite  spends  much 
of  his  leisure  time  at  his  residence  in  Poughkeepsie,  N. 
Y..  where  ample  grounds  and  a  roomy  residence  afford 
him  every  opportunity  to  entertain  his  friends  in  gener 
ous  fashion. 

Annie  Russell  was  born  in  1864  and  made  her  stage 
debut  when  only  ten  years  of  age.  Her  earliest  successes 
were,  however,  gained  as  a  member  of  the  company  of 
the  Madison  Square  Theatre,  this  city.  Ill  health  finally 
compelled  her  to  retire  from  the  stage  for  several  years, 
but  since  her  return  to  the  boards  she  has  gained  addi- 
tional renown  in  a  revival  of  "Esmeralda,"  in  "The  Salt 
of  the  Earth,"  "The  Mysterious  Mr.  Bugle,"  leading  roles 
with  Nat  C.  Goodwin  and  in  "Sue."  Last  season  she  was 
seen  in  the  last  named  play  in  London,  Eng.,  and  met

SPORTING. 


Benjamin*  Ht/nting  Howell.— The  subject  of  our 
■sketch,  a  lifelike  portrait  of  whom  appears  upon  another 
page,  is  the  second  American  oarsman  who  has  achieved 
the  enviable  distinction  ol'  winning  the  Diamond  Sculls 
at  the  annual  Royal  Henley  Regatta  on  the  Thames,  in  so 
doing  defeating  the  picked  scullers  of  Great  Britain  and 
the  Continent.  He  is  a  spendid  specimen  of  athletic 
manhood,  standing  lift,  5in.  in  height  and  weighing  about 
lNOtb  in  condition.  He  was  born  in  Brooklyn,  N.  YT.,  Sept. 
3,  1875,  and  after  spending  his  boyhood  and  youth  in  his 
native  land  went  to  England  for  the  purpose  of  com- 
pliitincrhis  education  at  Cambridge  University.  Although 
he  had  always  shown  a  fondness  for  the  water,  his  first 
experience  as  an  oarsman  was  with  the  waterman  of 
Trinity  Hall,  Cambridge,  where,  start;ng  as  a  crude 
landsman,  he  has  risen  to  the  position  of  captain  of  the 


crew,  and  has  won  signal  honors  for  his  college,  as  well 
as  for  the  land  of  his  birth.  Entering  Cambridge  in  1894. 
he  began  his  training  along  with  the  other  freshman  of 
his  class  in  October,  and  continued  until  he  was  admitted 
to  the  racing  forces  which  contested  in  the  May  "hump- 
ing" races  of  the  various  Cambridge  crews.  The  Trinity 
Hall  eight,  of  which  he  was  a  member,  won  the  "head  of 
the  river"  honors,  which  signifies  the  championship  of 
Cambridge,  and  went  to  Henley,  where,  in  June,  1895, 
they  won  the  Grand  Challenge  Cup,  Mr.  Howell  rowing  6. 
He  had  a  rugged  initiation  into  open  competition  during 
this  his  firstYrip  to  Henley.  He  was  in  the  eight  which 
beat  the  London  Rowing  Club  on  the  first  day  beat  Cor- 
nell University  the  morning  of  the  second  day.  and  won 
from  New  College  on  the  third  day.  On  the  afternoon  of 
the  second  day  he  was  in  Trinity  Hall's  four,  which  be?  t

Trinity  College,  but  was  beaten  by  Trinity,  Oxford,  on  the 
afternoon  of  tbe  third  day.  Thus  he  rowed  in  live  races 
during  the  three  days.  In  October  of  the  same  year  he 
contested  with  the  fours  and  university  eights,  open  to 
Cambridge  only,  and  during  the  succeeding  Winter  add- 
ed to  his  knowledge  of  oarsmanship  by  acting  as  coach. 
His  crew  again  won  "head  of  the  river"  in  May,  1896,  and 
went  to  Henley,  where  they  were  defeated  for  the  Grand 
Challenge  Cup,  he  rowing  6.  Returning  to  Cambridge, 
he  took  up  practice  with  the  sculls,  and  continued  it  as 
diligently  as  possible  thereafter  In  the  November  races 
he  rowed  5  in  the  university  trials,  and  was  a  member  of 
the  Cambridge  eight  which  was  beaten  by  Oxford  in  the 
Spring  of  1897.  In  the  May  races  he  won  the  university 
double  sculls,  pulling  stroke,  and  was  beaten  in  the  pair 
oars,  but  his  crew  again  won  "head  of  the  river,''  and 
went  to  Henley  for  another  trv  for  the  Grand  Challenge 
Cup.  The  Trinity  Hall  eight  defeated  the  London  Row 
ingClub  in  their  trial,  but  was  defeated  by  New  College 
on  t he  second  day  of  the  regatta  It  was  at  this  time 
that  he  made  his  first  try  at  the  Diamond  Sculls  In  the 
■first  trial  he  handily  defeated  McHenry,  hut  fell  before 
the  prowess  of  his  countryman,  Ten  Eyck,  in  his  next 
heat,  being  beaten  by  half  a  length.  During  the  three 
days  of  tbe  meeting  he  consequently  rowed  in  one  eight 
the  first  day,  an  eight  and  a  single  scull  the  second  and  a 
single  scull  the  third  day  Encouraged  by  bis  excellent 
showing  as  a  sculler,  he,  within  a  few  weeks,  was  one  of 
a  held  of  five  which  went  out  for  the  Wingfleld  Sculls, 
the  symbol  of  the  amateur  championship  of  England.  At 
the  end  of  the  four  miles  and  a  quarter  he  found  himself 
second  to  II.  T.  Blackstaffe,  whom  he  had  convinced  of 
hi*  ability  as  a  wielder  of  tbe  sculls.  Proving  that  his 
ability  as  an  oarsman  had  been  recognized  by  his  fellows, 
he  was  that  Autumn  elected  captain  of  Trinity  Hall's 
crew,  but  an  unfortunate  accident  temporarily  curbed 
his  usefulnesss  in  that  capacity.  During  the  third  day  of 
his  fall  practice  he  came  in  collision  with  another  shell, 
the  bow  of  which  pierced  his  leg  through  and  through 
Although  the  distressing  mishap  put  him  out  of  commis- 
sion during  preparations  for  the  Spring  races,  he  came 
around  in  shape  for  the  May  contests,  where  reverses  fol 
lowed  him.  He  was  in  a  dead  heat  for  the  university 
pairs,  the  struggle  ending  in  record  time,  and  was  defeat- 
ed in  the  university  doubles  Trinity  Hall's  eight  next 
went  to  the  eventful  Henley  regatta  of  1898  The  aspira- 
tions of  the  crew,  in  so  far 'as  the  Challenge  Cup  was  con 
cerned,  were  nipped  in  the  bud  by  the  London  Rowing 
Club  on  the  first  day,  but  Mr.  Howell  went  into  the  Dia 
mond  Sculls  undaunted.  Following  Trinity  HalUs  defeat 
in  the  morning,  he  won  bis  trial  for  the  Sculls  from  A.  F 
G.  Everett,  in  8m.  32s.,  thereby  establishing  a  new  rec- 
ord for  the  event.  H.  W.  Stout  felt  the  power  of  his  oars 
in  his  trial  on  the  second  day,  and  H.  T.  Blackstalfe 
proved  a  victim  in  the  final  heat,  the  afternoon  following, 
when  he  lowered  his  own  record  for  the  event  to  8m.  29s. 
He  next  made  his  second  essay  at  the  \YingfieId  Sculls, 
defeating  C  R.  Thorn  in  his  first  heat  and  thereby  se 
curing  the  right  to  challenge  the  holder,  II.  T.  Black 
staffe  His  heat  with  the  holder  was  decided  June  23 
last,  when  he  won  in  22m.  56:,5s.,  hein<j.'«25s.  faster  than  the 
course  had  previously  been  rowed  in  a  race  for  the  Sculls. 
For  four  miles  his  rival  held  a  strong  lead,  but  the  Amer- 
ican spurted  in  the  final  quarter  and  crossed  the  line 
with  the  championship  of  English  amateur  oarsmen  to  his 
credit,  winning  by  about  three  lengths. 

F.  W.  Jarvis.—  This  young  amateur  athlete  has  been 
before  the  public  as  such  for  about  four  years,  having 
commenced  as  a  sprint  runner  when  sixteen  vears  of  aire. 
He  is  now  twenty  years  old,  stands  5ft.  8iii.  in  height 
without  shoes,  and  in  the  best  of  phvsical  condition 
weighs  1431b.  He  is  a  member  of  the  Chicago  Athletic 
Association,  and  is  now  a  student  of  Princeton  Univer- 
sity, in  the  class  of  1900.  During  the  period  he  has  fig- 
ured  on  the  cinder  path  he  has  met  with  much  success, 
having  won  forty  five  first  prizes,  and  during  the  pasl  sea 
•son  his  ambition  was  gratified  by  his  achieving  success  in 
the  contest  for  the  quarter  mile  championship  at  the  an- 
nual field  meeting  of  the  Intercollegiate  Athletic  Associ- 
ation, at  New  York  City,  May  27,  28,  when  he  wore  the 
black  and  yellow  of  old  Nassa'u,  and  in  the  race  for  the 
one  hundred  yards  championship  of  the  Amateur  Athletic 
Union,  held  at  Chicago,  111.,  June  23,  when  lie  sported  the 
colors  of  the  Chicago  Athletic  Association.  These  were 
Jarvis' most  noteworthy  achievements,  but  he  has  gained 
many  more  highly  creditable  victories  over  speedv  and 
well  seasoned  runners.  His  best  records  are  as  follow: 
One  hundred  yards,  IDs. ;  one  furlong,  22)^s. ;  quarter 
mile,  4925s.  He  is  hardly  in  his  prime  as  a  short  distance 
flyer  yet.  and  as  he  is  imbued  with  laudable  ambition  we 
may  anticipate  his  climbing  vet  higher  on  the  ladder  of 
athletic  fame  during  the  season  of  1899. 


J  W.  B.  Tkwksbtky. — The  young  gentleman  here  named 
Is  the  present  intercollegiate  champion  sprinter,  and  was 
born  at  Ashley,  Pa.,  twenty-one  years  ago.  is  six  feet  in 
height  without  his  shoes,  and  when  in  proper  athletic 
Shape  weighs  about  H5tt>.  from  which  it  will  be  noted  that 
be  is  not  noticeably  overburdened  with  superfluous  flesh 
He  has  achieved  the  enviable  position  he  holds  in  n  re- 
markably brief  period  of  time,  never  having  engaged  In 


a  race  in  public  until  the  Spring  ol  1897,  and  then  only  in 
the  dual  field  games  between  tbe  University  ol  Pennsyl- 
vania (in  which  institution  be  is  a  student)  and  Harvard 
University,  and  at  the  annual  field  meeting  of  the  Inter- 
collegiate Athletic  Association.  Tbe  first  occasion  marked 
his  debut  as  a  sprinter,  and  he  succumbed  to  "stage 
fright."  At  the  intercollegiate  games  hedid  better,  gain- 
ing third  place  in  the  one  furlong  run  At  the  New  Jer- 
sey Athletic  Club  Carnival,  later  in  the  same  year,  he 
won  the  sixty  yards  run.  His  next  appearance  was  made 
in  the  relay  races  at  Boston,  Mass.,  Feb.  5,  1898,  he  being 
on  the  University  of  Pennsylvania  team.  On  April  23  he 
won  a  furlong  handicap  at  Princeton  University  At  the 
intercollegiate  relay  races  be  was  a  member  of  the  Penn- 
sylvania team,  and  he  also  won  a  special  one  hundred 
and  twenty  yards  race  from  B  J.  Wefers,  April  30.  At  the 
dual  field  meeting  between  the  University  of  Pennsyl 
vania  and  Cornell  University,  May  21,  he  was  successful 
in  both  the  "hundred"  and  "two  twenty,"  and  he  re- 
peated this  trick  on  the  occasion  of  the  intercollegiate 
championships.  May  28.  At  the  games  held  by  the  New 
Jersey  Athletic  Club  on  Decoration  Day,  May  30,  he  cap- 
tured the  three  hundred  yards  sprint.  These  were  the 
only  events  in  which  he  has  participated  during  his  ca- 
reer as  an  athlete,  and  it  must  be  admitted  that  they  bear 
convincing  testimony  to  his  superior  ability  as  a  short 
distance  runner.  Tbe  time  accomplished  by  him  at  the 
intercollegiate  sanies  in  1898  was  as  follows:  One  hun- 
dred yards,  IDs' ;  one  furlong,  21:,5s.,  J.  H.  Rush,  the 
speedy  Princeton  runner,  finishing  second  on  both  occa- 
sions. Still  greater  things  may  be  expected  from  him  be 
fore  the  season  of  1899  closes.

present  holder  of  the  intercollegiate  championship,  and

but  also  to  regain  tbe  world's  record  by  materially  adding 
to  his  distance  figures.

Frank  McDaniels.— This  speedy  Western  ice  skater 
and  long  jumper  on  skares  is  a  native  of  Minnesota, 
having  been  born  at  Kasota,  Dec.  2,  1874,  is  of  Scotch- 
English  descent,  stands  5ft.  6in.  in  height,  and  weighs 
in  condition  1471b.  He  has  always  been  fond  of  athletic 
sports,  learned  to  skate  at  six  years  of  age,  and  when 
eighteen  years  old  lifted  with  hands  alone,  free  from  the 
ground,  9001b,  dead  weight.  When  still  in  his  teens  he 
became  quite  an  expert  wrestler,  and  could  "down" 
most  of  the  young  fellows  in  his  section.  He  began  pub- 
lic racing  in  the  Winter  of  1894-95,  and  underwent  a 
regular  course  of  training  under  Mr.  Docken,  of  .Minne- 
apolis, in  the  Winter  of  1896,  when  he  participated  in  the 
championship  races  of  the  National  Amateur  Skating 
Association.  His  performances  at  that  time  were  as  fol- 
low: Jan.  23,  1896,  second  to  Harley  Davidson  in  race  for 
three  miles  championship  of  the 'Twin  Cities.  Jan  25, 
second  to  John  Nilsson  m  race  for  five  miles  champion- 
ship of  Minnesota;  third  to  J.  K.  McCulloch  and  J.  Nilsson 
for  five  miles  national  championship,  second  to  J.  Nilsson 
for  one  mile  State  championship;  second  to  J.  K  McCul- 
loch in  ten  miles  open  race.  Jan.  29,  third  to  J.  K.  McCul- 
loch and  O.  A.  Rudd  in  race  for  one  mile  national  cham- 
pionship; second  to  J.  K.  McCulloch  in  race  for  ten  miles 
national  championship,  O.  A.  Rudd  finishing  third,  and  L. 
Johnson  fourth.  The.-e  performances,  although  not  rep- 
resenting victories,  were  highly  creditable  to  Mr.  McDan- 
iels, as  the  time  was  excellent  and  the  victors  real  cham- 
pions, who  had  previously  won  their  spurs.  He  had  won 
the  State  championship  at  one  and  three  miles  the  pre- 
ceeding  year,  and  in  the  Winter  of  1897  he  again  won  the 
state  championship.  At  the  opening  of  South  Side  Park, 
Minneapolis.  Dec.  26,  1S97,  McDaniels,  who  previously  had 
made  a  record  of  18ft.  7?4in..  in  a  trial  against  the  exist- 
ing figures,  cleared  a  distance  of  21ft.  7in  in  a  running 
long  jump  on  skates,  which  now  constitutes  the  world's 
record.  He  is  strongly  imbued  with  a  desire  to  increase 
Ins  list  of  conquests,  as  also  to  enlarge  the  sphere  of  his 
usefulness  on  the  sreel  blades,  and  it  is  most  likely  that 
he  will  be  found  among  the  competitors  at  the  next  an- 
nual championship  meeting  in  the  East,  and  that  he 
will  gain  fresh  laurels  there  and  elsewhere  during  the 
season.

is  one  of  exceptional  ability,  too,  while  the  star  himself 
never  appeared  to  better  advantage."— WASHINGTON 
TIMES. 

"  'The  Charlatan'  is  a  genuine  comic  opera  of  the  best 
type.  The  music  is  full  of  ginger  and  entrain.  Before  we 
knew  it  we  were  revelling  in  Sousaism,  affable  waltzes, 
two  steps  that  make  you  yearn  to  cet  up  and  trip  it 
lightly— and  .jolly,  rollickin'sr  ensembles,  bousa  is  the 
comedian  of  music."— N.  Y.  JOURNAL.

DEVOTED  EXCLUSIVELY  TO 

Continuous  Performance  of  Refined  Uaudeville. 

JKg=-  "In  these  days  of  the  vaudeville  theatre's  triumph,  when  notables  from  the  'legitimate  stage'  are  vying  for 
honors.  Mr.  Proctor's  playhouses  have  become  the  most  prolific  of  producing  theatres  in  New  York.  Hardly  a  week 
goes  by  that  some  aspirant  for  distinction  in  the  new  field,  or  players  who  have  won  a  standing  there,  does  uot  bring 
out  a  new  piece  at  these  houses.  So  common  has  been  this  practice  since  the  regular  Fall  season  began  that  the 
Monday  afternoon  audiences  always  show  a  sprinkling  of  first  night  faces,  attracted  by  the  dramatic  noveltivN  of  the 
bill.  Y\"hen  we  consider  that  most  of  these  little  plays  require  expensive  and  tasteful  sc  uery,  and  are  in  their  way 
an  epitome  of  what  is  shown  in  the  four  act  comedy  or  farce,  we  find  ourselves  treating  the  continuous  performance 
house  with  great  respect,  and  we  discover  that  there  is  a  manager  in  this  popular  branch  of  the  theatrical  business 
who>e  theatres  have  the  honor  of  giving  the  world  more  new  productions  in  a  month  than  many  managers  who 
flatter  themselves  that  they  are  something  of  producers  turn  out  in  a  season." — JOHN  K.  STEVENSON,  in  THE  NEW

Nonsense."  This  not  only  included  absurdities  and  extremes,  but  a  burlesque  tragedy  and  some  clever  acting,  a 
patriotic  and  powerful  recitation,  also  a  sensational  strangulation  scone,  followed  by  a  dance,  which  really  showed 
that  after  all  the  strangulation  was  reallv  A  BIT  OF  NONSENCE.  The  burlesque  rilled  the  house  with  frequent 
laughter,  and  finished  in  the  midst  of  loud  applause.— MANCHESTER  STANDARD.
